When the guy came to my house, he didn't have a device to stop the cable coming into my house. He said he would return, but never did. So I'm getting the first 70 channels for free. UFC PPV's will be puchased online now. I'm hoping it's temporary... Job market isn't exactly great right now. As for the NY Time article, I have read it. It doesn't represent how she comes off on TV. She does a lot of giggling and um's when she is talking. Comes across very immature. Even when the camera is just showing her (no talking), she can't stop from having the goofy smile. It comes off very immature. Print doesn't do it justice.... IceMuncher, That makes sense. Ivan,

Affliction: Banned was counter-programmed by an A. Silva headlined UFN card on Spike. 45, if I had to guess, I’d say the UFC will put on a live card to counter the Fedor fight.

Can we look forward to the same thing happening again? “I don’t have Showtime anyways”

Airing UFC Knockouts or a Fight Night would have been enough for this. Yikes, that’s pretty severe for a fight nobody was going to watch anyway.
